Messi is returning to Miami.<\/p>\n
On Friday, July 3, the inter Miami CF star will represent his defending world champion club Argentina in a World Cup round of 32 match<\/a> against Vozinha\u2019s Cape Verde at Hard Rock Stadium.<\/p>\n If you\u2019d like to be there, last-minute tickets are available for the make-or-break showdown on the Dolphin\u2019s home field.<\/p>\n At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats was $2,181 including fees <\/a>on SeatGeek.<\/p>\n 100-level seats start at $2,524 including fees<\/a>.<\/p>\n Make sure to use promo code NYPOST10 for $10 off purchases over $250 at checkout (Editor\u2019s Note: this discount is only valid for users\u2019 first purchase on SeatGeek).<\/p>\n While prohibitively expensive, seeing Messi play in what might be his final World Cup \u2014\u00a0he would be 43 at the time of the 2030 tourney \u2014\u00a0is something soccer f\u00fatbol fans simply cannot attach a dollar amount to.<\/p>\n In just the first three matches of his sixth (!) World Cup, Messi has become the all-time leading World Cup goal scorer while also becoming the first player to score in seven straight matches.<\/p>\n As expected, Argentina made quick work of their Group J foes Algeria, Austria and Jordan, allowing only one goal.<\/p>\n Cape Verde had a bit of a different path to advance to the knockout round. Los Tubar\u00f5es Azuis had two scoreless draws against Saudi Arabia and Spain; they also tied Uruguay 2-2.<\/p>\n While not quite on Argentina\u2019s level, that\u2019s not too shabby for a country with only approximately 530,000 people, which is less than every state in the U.S.<\/p>\n Come Friday, Vozinha, the controversial Ryan Mendes<\/a> and Logan Costa will see if they can shock the world yet again and take down Messi, Juli\u00e1n Alvarez and Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez in the Magic City.<\/p>\n Need to be there and finally cross seeing Messi live off your bucket list?<\/p>\n We\u2019re here to lend a helping hand, hinchas (and Blue Sharks if you back Cape Verde).<\/p>\n Our team has everything you need to know and more about seeing Argentina versus Cape Verde live in the 2026 World Cup at Miami\u2019s Hard Rock Stadium below.<\/p>\n How much are tickets for the Argentina versus Cape Verde World Cup match?<\/p>\n A complete breakdown of all the best prices on tickets by section at Miami\u2019s Hard Rock Stadium for the Argentina vs. Cape Verde match can be found here:<\/p>\n Hard Rock Stadium sectionsTicket prices What other World Cup matches will be at Hard Rock Stadium in 2026?<\/p>\n A complete calendar including the two remaining World Cup matches (other than the Argentina-Cape Verde showdown) at Hard Rock Stadium along with dates and start times can be found below.<\/p>\n Who plays for Argentina and Cape Verde?<\/p>\n Both teams\u2019 complete rosters can be found here:<\/p>\n Argentina rosterCape Verde rosterEmiliano Mart\u00ednez (Goalkeeper)CJ dos Santos (Goalkeeper)Juan Musso (Goalkeeper)M\u00e1rcio Rosa (Goalkeeper)Ger\u00f3nimo Rulli (Goalkeeper)Vozinha (Goalkeeper)Leonardo Balerdi (Defender)Diney Borges (Defender)Lisandro Mart\u00ednez (Defender)Logan Costa (Defender)Facundo Medina (Defender)Jo\u00e3o Paulo Fernandes (Defender)Nahuel Molina (Defender)Roberto \u201cPico\u201d Lopes (Defender)Gonzalo Montiel (Defender)Sidny Lopes Cabral (Defender)Nicol\u00e1s Otamendi (Defender)Steven Moreira (Defender)Cristian Romero (Defender)Wagner Pina (Defender)Nicol\u00e1s Tagliafico (Defender)Kelvin Pires (Defender)Valent\u00edn Barco (Midfielder)Ianique \u201cStopira\u201d Tavares (Defender)Rodrigo De Paul (Midfielder)Telmo Arcanjo (Midfielder)Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez (Midfielder)Deroy Duarte (Midfielder)Giovani Lo Celso (Midfielder)Laros Duarte (Midfielder)Alexis Mac Allister (Midfielder)Jamiro Monteiro (Midfielder)Exequiel Palacios (Midfielder)Kevin Pina (Midfielder)Leandro Paredes (Midfielder)Yannick Semedo (Midfielder)Thiago Almada (Forward)Gilson Benchimol (Forward)Juli\u00e1n Alvarez (Forward)Jovane Cabral (Forward)Nicol\u00e1s Gonz\u00e1lez (Forward)Nuno da Costa (Forward)Jos\u00e9 Manuel L\u00f3pez (Forward)Dailon Livramento (Forward)Lautaro Mart\u00ednez (Forward)Ryan Mendes (Forward)Lionel Messi (Forward)Garry Rodrigues (Forward)Nico Paz (Forward)Willy Semedo (Forward)Giuliano Simeone (Forward)H\u00e9lio Varela (Forward)<\/p>\n Complete 2026 World Cup schedule<\/p>\n High-profile contests between all remaining clubs will go down at venues all over the U.S., Mexico and Canada this summer.<\/p>\n To make sure you\u2019re in the loop, you can find SeatGeek\u2019s complete schedule of all upcoming matches here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Huge 2026 concerts at Hard Rock Stadium<\/p>\n Hoping to catch a concert or three this summer, too?<\/p>\n You\u2019re in luck.<\/p>\n Many of the biggest names in music are swooping into Hard Rock Stadium these next few months.
